Crocus Bulbs FAQs

Take a look at some of the frequently asked questions we receive from those looking to buy Crocus Bulbs in the UK. You can contact our Customer Service Team or browse our general FAQs for further advice.

When to plant Crocus Bulbs

Crocus bulbs are best planted in the autumn, ideally between September and November. This allows them to establish themselves before the winter sets in, leading to a beautiful display of blooms in early spring. Choose a sunny or partially shaded location with well-drained soil to plant your crocus bulbs.

How to Plant Crocus Bulbs

To plant crocus bulbs, select a well-drained spot in your garden that receives full or partial sunlight. Plant the bulbs about 3 inches deep and 3 inches apart, with the pointed end facing upwards. Cover with soil and water well. Adding a layer of mulch can help protect the bulbs from severe winter weather and retain moisture.

How long do Crocus Bulbs take to grow

Crocus bulbs typically take about 4 to 6 weeks to sprout after planting. They will bloom in late winter or early spring, depending on the variety and local climate. After flowering, allow the foliage to die back naturally as this helps the bulbs store energy for the next growing season.

Why Grow Crocus Bulbs?

Growing crocus bulbs adds early spring colour to your garden when few other plants are in bloom. They are low-maintenance, hardy, and can naturalise well in lawns, borders, and rock gardens. Crocuses also attract early pollinators, helping to support the ecosystem.

Where can you grow Crocus Bulbs?

Crocus bulbs can be grown in various locations, including lawns, borders, rockeries, and containers. They prefer well-drained soil and can thrive in full sun or partial shade. Crocuses are also great for naturalising under deciduous trees and shrubs, where they can spread and create a beautiful carpet of flowers.
